Tripp hurt

Bleacher Report considering Tripp one of Miami's biggest preseason disappointments. Could have challenged for a starting job and in stead he possibly could get cut because once again he is injured and missing time.
The saying from the last slide: "You can't make the club in the tub?" That may not apply to DeVante Parker, but it could easily apply to linebacker Jordan Tripp.

The 6'3", 240-pounder out of Montana enters his second year, and with a wide-open battle at linebacker, there were probably some hopes that he could snatch up one of the starting spots for his own. He played just 12 snaps on defense in 2014, according to Pro Football Focus, and made most of his contributions on special teams.

In 2015, he has an uphill battle if he wants to make any contributions at all. Tripp was seen "sitting on a stationary bike next to crutches," according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Jackson reports that there are no plans to put Tripp on injured reserve at the moment, but needless to say, this is a pretty dramatic setback.

The Dolphins already have their starting linebacker trio sorted out between Chris McCain, Jelani Jenkins and Koa Misi, but Tripp could find his way into the rotation if he is healthy. That being said, he has to get healthy before it becomes a serious discussion.
